Lock You In My Heart novel Chapter 461

Gabrielle had a bad feeling Rose was implying something, so she hurried to her side.

"What do you mean, Rose? What trouble?" Gabrielle wanted to think Rose was giving her some sort of warning.

''It's nothing serious. A person like you who can't even stand the sight of chickens getting killed wouldn't be able to stir up trouble. Besides, it was Lance who brought you here. You two aren't actually blood-related? As in, not biological cousins, right?'' Rose curiously eyed her.

Even though Rose looked uninterested in these things, she was still a girl. And girls usually liked to gossip. It was something they couldn't help.

''Yes, that's right. Is there a problem?'' Gabrielle had a hard time following Rose's topics. Most of them were random and personal. She would ask about one thing and bring up another.

''No problem at all. I just realized something.'' Rose smiled teasingly.

''What is it? I'm already confused enough as it is.'' Gabrielle stopped in her tracks.

There weren't many people she could talk to in this place. She only trusted Lance. As a woman, she thought Rose was also someone she could talk to about all sorts of things.

''The Lance I know isn't the type of person to take risks. He brought you here, a sheltered girl who can't even wield a weapon to Bangkok and hid in the forest. Even though he said he took you here to see your brother, I think there's more to this journey. He wouldn't risk his life for just a cousin. It's very obvious Lance adores you very much. He likes you to the point he's willing to do anything for you, even if he risks his own life.'' Rose smiled knowing smile.

Rose's words stunned Gabrielle. She didn't think Rose would be very observant.

Lance did in fact, like Gabrielle in the past. However, he suppressed his feelings and accepted the fact that they were only cousins.

She couldn't believe how sharp Rose was. Gabrielle hadn't been here that long and Rose seemed to notice so much about her.

''Did I surprise you, Gabrielle? I'm such a smartass, but it has nothing to do with my wits. If a person loves someone, it really shows," Rose firmly explained.

''He's my cousin. It won't be possible for us to have that kind of relationship. Let's move along.'' Gabrielle didn't want to talk about it anymore and continued to walk forward.

Rose knew she crossed the line with her question, so she dropped it quickly and caught up with Gabrielle.

"Gabrielle, you can see the vegetable field from here." Rose was fast to change the subject so she could clear the tensed atmosphere.

Lance sat, staring seriously at Bain. He was waiting for the boss to say something and wondered what they could be talking about, but she was too far away.

''You called me because you have something to say right? Get straight to the point, Bain.'' Lance looked him in the eye.

"What's your relationship with Miss Jones?" Bain asked.

''My relationship with Gabrielle?''

Lance raised an eyebrow.

He didn't know why Bain would ask him this, but it was probably because he was curious about Gabrielle's identity.

She was new to this place and Lance brought her here on such short notice. If Bain didn't trust Gabrielle, that means he found Lance suspicious.
